Reptiles like high steady body temperatures just as mammals and birds do, however, and this means they have sophisticated ways to manage flows of heat between their bodies and the environment. One common way they do this is to use blood flow within the body to facilitate heat uptake and retard heat loss. A lizard basking in the sun, for example, ramps up its cardiac output. In this way, heat is transferred rapidly from the warm skin, to the body, and the body heats rapidly. Once the lizard has stopped basking, its cardiac output declines, retaining heat within the body so that the body cools slowly. In this way, a lizard can minimize the time it spends soaking up heat, and maximizes the time it can spend doing other essential things, like looking for food and mates or defending territories.
Actually all reptiles are cold blooded. To classify an animal to be a reptile, they need to have scales, and they have to be cold blooded. All snakes, lizards, alligators, skinks, Caiman's, etc. are cold blooded
this question is one of the most obvious yet unasked question i have ever come across, but there are no reptiles that are "warm blooded", all reptiles must bask or have some source of heat to regulate their blood temperature.
No, reptiles are not warm blooded. Apart from one or two exceptions, all reptiles are cold blooded.
Like all reptiles alive today, green sea turtles are cold blooded.
Cold-blooded - just like all reptiles.
Alligators are cold blood, as are all reptiles.
reptiles are cold blooded and mammals are warm blooded.
No, reptiles are not warm blooded. Apart from one or two exceptions, all reptiles are cold blooded.
snakes and all other reptiles are cold blooded :)

they are cold blooded just like all reptiles.
cold blooded
Crocodiles are reptiles, and like all reptiles, are cold-blooded.
No. We are mammals Reptiles are cold blooded we are warm blooded.
True. All reptiles are cold blooded
cold-blooded
they are cold blooded
Iguanas are reptiles, and are cold-blooded, as all reptiles are.
Mammals are warm blooded and reptiles are cold blooded.
